Coronavirus

We predict that widespread implementation of "test and isolate" policy alone is insufficient to prevent the rapid re-emergence of SARS CoV-2 without moderate physical distancing. Widespread testing, contact tracing and case isolation would allow relaxation of physical distancing, as well as opening of schools, without a surge in local cases and deaths
Using saliva instead of respiratory swabs enables non-invasive frequent sampling and reduces the need for trained healthcare professionals during collection. Our test does not require nucleic acid preservatives at sample collection and replaces nucleic acid extraction with a simple proteinase K and heat treatment step.
